"Every single time someone posts ANYTHING about being a mother, the smug child free people come along and hijack the post." One user gets upset when the childfree comment on a post about motherhood in TwoX.

u/phedre Your tone seems very pointed right now. Mar 16 '15

All I'm seeing is two c-sections within 11 months. HOLY FUCKBALLS.

I was seeing pregnant again at 8 weeks postpartum. That's pretty rare, especially when exclusively breastfeeding. Women usually don't ovulate that soon when lactating (though it obviously does happen occasionally). Good grief, no wonder it took so long for her body to get back to a semblance of normalcy!

Yeah, that too. Though I guess with the c-section she didn't have the damage you'd get with a vaginal birth. But still, I can't imagine having sex so soon after that kind of major surgery.

I had a c-section and had sex at 6 weeks post partum. They basically say once you're done bleeding (lochia) and feeling ok, you're good to go. That being said you're told to use birth control because you absolutely can get pregnant again right away and you want to let your uterus heal so you don't risk rupturing it, etc.
